So can a concerned customer call the police/sheriff and request they come and verify the authenticity of the service animal? Will they/can they question the owner more thoroughly than the restaurant owner is allowed?
Can you pet a service dog? I have always had the impression you should leave them alone, they are working. So ask the owner if you can pet the dog, if they say yes you have a big clue.

From the ADA website Q and A section:
Q31: Are stores required to allow service animals to be placed in a shopping cart? A: Generally, the dog must stay on the floor, or the person must carry the dog. For example, if a person with diabetes has a glucose alert dog, he may carry the dog in a chest pack so it can be close to his face to allow the dog to smell his breath to alert him of a change in glucose levels. Q32: Are restaurants, bars, and other places that serve food or drink required to allow service animals to be seated on chairs or allow the animal to be fed at the table? A: No. Seating, food, and drink are provided for customer use only. The ADA gives a person with a disability the right to be accompanied by his or her service animal, but covered entities are not required to allow an animal to sit or be fed at the table.

I'd rather have a dog in a baby stroller than a screamin' kid next to me in a baby stroller in a restaurant.

You can. Or you can get up and leave if you do not wish to eat there. You can pay for your meal or try to walk away from the check as a protest. This may cause the cops to come...OR you can call the police. You can protest to the waiter, to the manager, to the dog owner or to the dog. You can decide to not eat there again. You can ignore the pooch and continue eating and order another drink. You can talk loudly about dogs in a restaurant. There are lots of possibilities.

Report back to this forum exactly what they tell you. Thanks. Personally, if the dog was on the floor and behaving itself, I would take Gracie's advice and order another drink. But that's me. |

I would find it odd to see a dog in a stroller eating at a restaurant but would it really bother me? No! Would I think the patron who brought the dog was a little strange and presumptuous? Yes.
